proud dad - building @syntwinai - organizing Munich TypeScript

[Carl Assmann @carlassmann]

i'm looking for our second product engineer in munich (hybrid) at @syntwinai.

syntwins goal is to scale communication capacities through an individual AI counterpart for every person.

instead of leaving a message and wait, you can talk to someones syntwin and often get the answer immediately.

we are an early stage startup with a few investors and B2B customers. the stack is @astrodotbuild, @convex, @livekit and @EffectTS_.

compensation is 90-120k € + equity. find details here:

@timo_rf you are trolling lol

loosing 50% battery on a new m5pro in an hour.

dev work on a laptop makes no sense anymore.

[Carl Assmann @carlassmann]

this changes once you have multiple of them, each running the dev servers, interacting with the app while they work on it, execute tests / checks, and spawn subagents that review.

in that session yesterday i had 5-10 tasks running in parallel to implement stuff and each of them spinning up 4 reviewers when they thought they are done and then iterating on the findings.

so in the worst case 40 agents doing stuff.

[Carl Assmann @carlassmann]

2 hours is all we got now.

5-10 parallel tasks in codex with each one running the dev servers, trying the app in browsers, running tests, and apawning a handful of review agents to iterate.

plus me manually reading / testing one of the branches.

i bought the new one because i needed more ram and i was hoping to have a longer lasting battery lol

[Carl Assmann @carlassmann]

@burnerDevAcct i can take it with me when i have to. and i have to quite a lot.

but with longer running afk tasks i feel bad when unplugging and backpacking it.

we gotta treat laptops as gateways to our dev machines that are running somewhere else.

@timo_rf they cool down the cpu so it can keep crunching. turning them off would slow it down massively

@zack_overflow new macbook pro m5pro here.

the battery is worthless when you work on them nowadays

[Carl Assmann @carlassmann]

unusable for long running tasks.

[Carl Assmann @carlassmann]

this is how to deal with Ox Alpha randomly stopping

[Carl Assmann @carlassmann]

@alexanderOpalic why do i need to move it to the cloud to do multiplayer?

i run the tasks on one of my macbooks that is plugged in. remote controlled. i can open them anytime to unblock anything. they are way cheaper to run the things on than the cloud because i already have them.

[Carl Assmann @carlassmann]

@alexanderOpalic you are not a normie. neither in terms of software nor in terms of utilizing AI.

dont extrapolate from that.

[Carl Assmann @carlassmann]

@reactreaper cant beat free inference. and the smaller things i did were good so lets throw big stuff at it
